  Particle accelerators need a timing mechanism to properly accelerate the beam from its source to its destination. The synchronization among accelerator devices is important, which is accomplished by a distribution of timing signals. Devices which require their times synchronized to the acceleration cycle are connected to timelines. Timing signals are sent out along the timelines in the form of digital codes. Correspondingly, devices in the complex are equipped with timeline decoders, which allow devices to extract timing signals appropriately. In this work, a new simulation architecture is introduced which can generate user-specific timing events for software testing in the control systems.

  The Helmholtz Association has initiated the implementation of the Data Management and Analysis concept across its centers in Germany. At Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin, both the beamline and the machine (accelerator) groups have started working towards setting up the infrastructure and tools to introduce modern analysis, optimization, automation and AI techniques for improving the performance of the (large scale) user facility and its experimental setups. This paper focuses on our first steps with Machine Learning techniques over the past months at BESSY II as well as organizational topics and collaborations. The presented results correspond to two complementary scenarios. The first one is based on supervised ML models trained with real accelerator data, whose target are real-time predictions for several measurements (lifetime, efficiency, beam loss, …); some of these techniques are also used for additional tasks such as outlier detection or feature importance analysis. The second scenario includes first prototypes towards self-tuning of machine parameters in different optimization cases (injection efficiency, orbit correction, …) with Deep Reinforcement Learning agents.

  In order to improve beam energy, a superconducting booster is built behind the tandem accelerator. The Control system is designed based on EPICS according to its functional needs. It gives a detailed description of hardware and software. The control system realizes data acquisition, network monitoring, Process variable (PV) management, database services, historical data analysis, alarm and other functions of remote device. The running result shows that the control system has fast response time and works stably and reliably, which meets the control requirement.
